Johnny Marr to Smiths-reunion hopefuls: 'Find a hobby'

Johnny Marr has a message for fans still holding out hope for a reunion of The Smiths: It's not happening.

In more blunt terms, the guitarist told the "Japan Times" in a recent interview, "If people get genuinely upset and frustrated that four men that last played together 25 years ago are doing other things, then those people need to go and find a hobby."

Marr, who formed The Smiths with Morrissey back in 1982, released his first solo album, The Messenger in February and is reportedly already working on a follow up. He's also getting ready to tour the UK in October.
